CEN/TC 247/WG 6 - Electronic control equipment for HVAC applications, integrated room automation, controls and management systems

This document specifies requirements and test methods for room temperature sensors used to control the room temperature.
This document is applicable to wall mounted and flush mounted room temperature sensors.
The following aspects are not covered by this document:
-   pendulum temperature sensors;
